We get three back end of January but could take three to four games to get upto speed. I'd get in three loans with no option to pad the squad and give the three coming back time to recover properly. Expand We seem deadset on gambling on avoiding short term pain for long term FFP gain. I do think we will bring at least a couple of players in though, even if they are loans.

Likely having some impact on what we do. Expand Not sure they will be. Willock has been fucked all season and had no pre-season. Barnes’ return just keeps getting pushed back. Not even trained with the squad yet since the injury, has he? Wilson is made of porcelain. Anderson we have heard sod all about. But some murmurings that the injury is taking longer to heal than first thought. Throw in the lads that have come back recently have all looked miles off the pace and perhaps rushed back due to our current plight. Then I’m not sure relying on these four is the answer.

captainhaircut Posted January 4, 2024 Share Posted January 4, 2024 You could easily justify Almiron to Saudi for 20m which given how long he’s been with us would offer some great FFP relief you’d think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It’s such a short term move and a bad use of money. He’s 27 having one hot streak in a league renowned for poor defending. We have way less games lumped together in the second half of the season. Are you convinced we can get our money back for him if he comes in and flops? If so go for it.
